GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

...from http://www.streetforce.ca/ in Montreal. They come primed and are ready to be fitted and painted (you must do fitment check before painting to make sure everything lines up properly). Thanks to ArcsVibe for posting the website link back at the end of June.These hood have been discontinued by the manufacturer. However, I talked to Gabriel @ Streetforce and he stated that they have 11 hoods ready to ship. Well, now only 10, since I placed my order. Call 1-877-973-6723 and tell him that Brian from GenVibe.com referred you. I told him that I would be posting this info on here. I will have to store mine and get it painted and installed next spring. Woohoo!Here are some sample pics:

thats the one i like the most! i dont have enough spare change to get one yet thou you should ask mr. grille to make some grill inserts for the ram air

I'd put that on my car

Thanks Brian, but unfortuntely I am working a deal to try to get an air bag kit for $500 or less come payday. Maybe if I leave a deposit I can get them to hold one for me until next month? I'm sick of waiting for a CF hood, but maybe I will just wait and see if something works out, I don't know.

man, functional ram-air to a c.a.i, would be sweet

punch out your fog light

great people and quality. The Vibe that is sponsored by the people who did my sound system had that kit when they made it in late 03. I almost got one but never could get ahold of anyone.

thanks for the info ragin

that hood is pretty sweet. not too shavvy on price neither. i have just enbarked on a project to make a functional hood scoop.i'll post pictures in about 2 weeks.

my ram air grand prix had the same flow design. why do they do that, a hard right angle to the box? wouldnt an arc be more efficient in so far as keeping the force of the airflow?will this hood fit a 2005?

Hmmm...we'll see how much cash I have after the NO2, wheels, and dishwasher for mother. I would need a good place to paint it that's the problem. People don't take pride in their work as much as they used to.

Yes it will fit a 2005. Mine was just shipped out yesterday.

People don't take pride in their work as much as they used to.I have gone to ABRA Auto Body and they have done an awesome job for me in the past.Edit: Nevermind, I see there are no locations in MI.

(removed)....thanks...for nothing!Just kidding I remember one of the members, at the last Fenton rally had a ram air hood and the people that painted hers messed it up. Of course I didn't notice until she pointed it out.

Of course I didn't notice until she pointed it out.That sounds like CAcathy's car but I didn't see her this past year.That Slp hood looks like it would be perfect, If you could get ahold of one of the ram air intakes, off those Vibes that Gm brought to the meet.

couple things...-man this is bad looking at this while im drunk as i might buy it..-theres a circle on the top of our air boxes, does that circle match up?-does the ram air directing on the hood get in the way of a strut tower bar?-dam i want one

so what if they match?? you can't just cut out a hole on top of the air box. not with the filter resting on the lower side of the filter box. you would still need a short ram intakte to make it work. then if the circles lined up. it wouldn't matter. ha ha ha i ruined your precious hood!!! lmaodam it people. quit being lazy and make your own. lolthat hood would be cool if it had a filter housing on it. then you could cut out the stock filter box.

They discontinued the hood and the filter kit but it should be easy enough to create a filter set up yourself.

im sorry to be slow this morning, but i need to clarify one thing:is this an actual hood made by SLP available THROUGH streetforce, or is this a hood done by streetforce in teh same design as the SLP hood?I have direct experience with SLP that would make me more likely to buy this...how about this for a 2005?http://www.slponline.com/view_...0192Athanks(and thanks bluecrush for sharing this info)

that sucks.again, make your onw.

well you could just do short ram air intake and the hole will be pretty close to the filter. If i got it i think id have cai and the hood just for looking and a little cool air in the engine compartment.
